During the tour, the director of the Vallartense Institute of Culture, Arturo Dávila López and, the coordinator of the CCEPi, Yair López, shared with the mayor and the Secretary the projects that are currently being developed in this enclosure, as well as others that are being contemplated to enrich the work that the cultural center maintains.
